'Arctic 30' Global Day Of Solidarity

On October 5th, 2013, over 10,000 people in 48 countries take part in 220 activities, all part of an emergency Global Day of Solidarity for the 'Arctic 30.’ A Russian court charged twenty-eight Greenpeace International activists, as well as a freelance videographer and photographer, with piracy this week. The charges follow a peaceful protest against Arctic oil drilling at a Gazprom oil platform in the Pechora Sea.
